Dr. Scotto is one of the best doctors I've ever seen. I've been going to him for the past several months, and he has already helped me more than most doctors ever have. In the first session, I came in with so many questions and felt so confused about what all of my difficulties meant. Luckily, he is an expert in all of the psychiatric conditions I've been diagnosed with, the last of which was diagnosed by him after our very first session. I think he knew pretty much after just a few minutes what it was I was dealing with, but he asked me many thorough questions to learn more about me before sharing his thoughts at the end of the session. His diagnosis changed my life for the better--so much so, that I barely know how to thank him sufficiently. He's wonderful and it's clear that he really loves what he does and wants to help in any ways he can. He's caring and understanding, and never makes you feel like you're wasting his time. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for a psychiatrist. I'm so thankful I found him on here.

This was my first experience with a psychiatrist and it was a very positive one with Dr. Scotto. He made me feel very comfortable and it felt natural to confide in him with some very personal issues. I feel relieved already and look forward to working out my problems with his help.

Dr.Scotto is the best doctor I have been to. He takes his time with his patients and asks the right questions. He is dead on with the diagnosis and actually spends the entire hour with the patient rather than 5 minutes.

He was the most informed Dr. I've had with regards to medicine and my reactions. His bedside manner was also the best in comparison to all the other mental health professionals I've had to deal with.

He is a great doctor! Takes time with the diagnosis and is very in tune with his patients. I have never felt so confident in a doctor.
